Q&A with Pro Apple Graphic Designer

By: Allie Gladstone

Dale Mahabir is knowledgeable on the latest and greatest technology as he works for Fortune Web Marketing agency, which strives to offer the newest insight, knowledge and technology for Internet websites.

Allie: How did you get involved in this business?

Dale: I had to get an internship for school. I interviewed at a few different places in Monmouth and Ocean County. Fortune Web Marketing ended up being the closest AND highest paying, so I chose them to intern. At the end of my internship, I was offered a full-time position.

A: What is your job title?

D: Lead graphic designer.

A: If you don’t mind me asking, how old are you now?

D: I was 21 when I got started with Fortune Web and now I’m 24.

A: What is the most common technology you deal with in your line of work?

D: I do all of my work on my Macbook Pro and my iPhone, my line of work would be very difficult or close to impossible without the Apple tools and applications I use.

A: What do you like about your job?

D: I enjoy the opportunity to be creative. I've learned a lot at my job, and get to work with some great people that have strong professional backgrounds. I have a lot of different projects that I work, from printed marketing material to designing and coding websites. I get a lot of diversity in my day-to-day workflow.

A: Any dislikes?

D: Most of our clients are older and afraid of the edginess that comes naturally in what I create. I have to tone myself down a lot, but I actually am working part-time with another company called Killbrand, it’s more of clothing graphic design, where I get to work on my Macbook and really express my creativity.

A: What is your opinion of the new iPhone technology in recent years?

D: At first I was an iPhone doubter. I never thought I used anything the iPhone had to offer. That was until my boss paid for me to have one for work. Now I don't know how I'd survive without it. I can find the answer to any question I have and connect to everything/everyone that I need, whether it be professionally or socially. It has really become a staple in my line of work.

A: How do you feel about Apple as a company?

D: Apple is one of the most innovative companies around. I feel it's only a matter of time before Macs rule the world not only socially but also for business. As someone that was brought up on PCs but converted to Macs, I'm counting down to this day and getting the "I TOLD YOU SO" ready for all of you. I know they're more expensive, but I've always looked at an Apple product as an investment, not an expense.
